### Eureka Math Geometry Module 4 Lesson 2 Example Answer Key

Example 1.

→ Name three points inside the rectangular region.
Answers will vary. Possible answers include (2, 2), (5, 4), and (14, 6).
→ Name three points on the boundary of the rectangular region.
Answers will vary. Possible answers include (3, 2), (15, 6), and (7, 7).
→ What if we want to know all of the points in the region and on the boundary? How can I describe those points?
Let students brainstorm and do a 30 – second Quick Write; then, share ideas with the class before asking the following.
→ Can you say anything about the possible value of x?
The x – values are to the right of 1 but to the left of 15; the x – values are greater than or equal to 1; the x – values are less than or equal to 15; x ≥ 1 and x ≤ 15; 1 ≤ x ≤ 15.

→ Can you say anything about the possible value of y?
The y – values are above 2 but below 7; the y – values are greater than or equal to 2; the y – values are less than or equal to 7; y ≥ 2 and y ≤ 7; 2 ≤ y ≤ 7.
→ What can you say about the coordinates of points that lie on the left side of this rectangular region?
The points on the left border of this rectangle all have x – coordinates of 1. On the top side?
The points on the top border of this rectangle all have y – coordinates of 7.

→ The region is a rectangle. Let’s review the properties of a rectangle. (Have students share ideas on the board.)
All rectangles have opposite sides parallel, opposite sides congruent, 4 right angles, and diagonals congruent.
→ What is the length of a diagonal of the rectangular region?
The diagonal is approximately 14.9 units.
→ Does it matter which of the two diagonals you work with?
No, the diagonals of a rectangle are the same length.
→ Can you give the coordinates of a point within the rectangular region that lies on the diagonal that connects (1, 2) to (15, 7)?
There are an infinite number of points on the diagonal. Students may find the point lying in the middle by averaging the values and get (8, 4.5), or they could use the rise over run triangle and find other points such as (3.8, 3).

Example 2.
Draw the triangular region in the plane given by the triangle with vertices (0, 0), (1, 3), and (2, 1). Can we write a set of inequalities that describes this region?

y ≤ 3x
y ≥ $$\frac{1}{2}$$x
y ≤ – 2x + 5

### Eureka Math Geometry Module 4 Lesson 2 Exercise Answer Key

Opening Exercises
Graph each system of inequalities.

a. y ≥ 1
x ≤ 5
i. Is (1, 2) a solution? Explain.
Yes, (1, 2) is inside the region.

ii. Is (1, 1) a solution? Explain.
Yes, (1, 1) is on the border of the region and included in the region.

iii. The region is the intersection of how many half – planes? Explain how you know.
It is the intersection of 2 half planes, x ≤ 5 and y ≥ 1. x ≤ 5 splits the plane in half at the vertical line x=5 and to the left. y ≥ 1 cuts the plane in half horizontally from the line y=1 and above.

b. y < 2x + 1
y ≥ – 3x – 2
i. Is ( – 2, 4) in the solution set?
No, it does not belong to the overlapping shaded region.

ii. Is (1, 3) in the solution set?
No, (1, 3) is not in the solution set because it is on the boundary, but that boundary is not included.

iii. The region is the intersection of how many half – planes? Explain how you know.
It is the intersection of 2 half planes and includes the portion of the line y<2x + 1 above the intersection, and the portion of the line y≥ – 3x – 2 below the intersection.
